Group Critical Illness policies pay a benefit to an employee, should that employee be diagnosed as suffering from one or more of a scheduled list of serious medical conditions.
Subject to Inland Revenue rules, the benefit may constitute a tax free lump sum of up to 4x times salary.
Benefits are typically payable should an employee survive a crtical illness but be unable to return to work for some time.
Group premiums are usually lower than individual premiums due to the costs of group processing.
The value of a Group Critical Illness scheme to an employer is to provide peace of mind for your staff, which helps to attract and retain good employees.
